I will continue to establish honest and caring relationships by encouraging the people around me to express their ideas and dreams by utilizing my vision of frequently overlooked opportunities.  I will maintain my integrity by controlling my actions.  I will pursue my passions, dreams and goals through introspection and study to find my calling that has been given to me by a loving God.  I will continue to share my life experiences to the extent that these will help others to overcome their fears.  I will build upon the talents that God has given me in the area of music.
